Chapter 472 Analysis of pros and cons
When Lin Cheng saw the girl’s cute blushing face, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise, and his smile became more intense.
During his travels in the past few years, Lin Cheng met all kinds of girls, but the only one who could occupy a place in his heart, apart from his three sisters from the same family, was Shen Yi in front of him.
Why is this so? Lin Cheng himself was also confused. Because of this confusion, when his second sister proposed to match him with Shen Yi for a blind date, he agreed without much hesitation.
He was eager to explore his true feelings through this contact. The moment he saw Shen Yi again today, all his previous doubts disappeared.
Lin Cheng suddenly realized that Shen Yi was the person he had been looking for. When the two of them were alone, his heart beat so violently that it seemed to jump out of his chest. This abnormal physical reaction further confirmed his thoughts.
He wanted to walk through every day of the future with Shen Yi and spend the long journey of life together, so he confessed to Shen Yi.
Shen Yi, who was sitting opposite Lin Cheng, took a long time to recover from the shock brought by Lin Cheng's straightforward confession.
She pursed her lips slightly before speaking, "Actually, this is also my first time participating in a formal blind date, and there are many things I don't know. Mr. Lin revealed so much, and if I said nothing, it would be my fault."
"My name is Shen Yi, and I am only 18 years old. My father is an official in the Ministry of Industry. My mother unfortunately passed away a few years ago. I also have a younger brother. As for assets, I don't have much. On weekdays, I mainly help my grandmother manage the various complicated affairs in the mansion."
After a brief pause, Shen Yi took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to look up and look directly into Lin Cheng's eyes, and then said, "Regarding the matter of admiration, I really don't understand. What exactly do you like about me, Mr. Lin? If I remember correctly, today is only the second time we have met."
After listening to Shen Yi's words, Lin Cheng began to think about this question seriously. After a while, he finally answered: "When I am with you, Miss Shen, my heartbeat speeds up involuntarily and I am filled with joy. However, when I am with other people, I don't have this special reaction, so I think this should be the specific manifestation of liking someone."
Shen Yi pursed her lips after hearing this and spoke hesitantly: "Then...if I say that I don't have this kind of feeling towards you, Master Lin, what will Master Lin do?"
Lin Cheng did not answer but asked: "Miss Shen, do you have someone you like?"
"Nothing."
"Does that disgust me?"
".…..No."
Lin Cheng nodded, and then asked: "Excuse me for being so presumptuous, Miss Shen, can you please tell me what your ideal future husband is like?"
Shen Yi was stunned. She didn't expect Lin Cheng to ask her this question, but she still gave her answer: "Marriage is always decided by parents and matchmakers. It's not something I can do just because I want it to be."
"That's it." Lin Cheng's smile deepened.
Shen Yi couldn't quite follow Lin Cheng's train of thought. She looked at him with a puzzled look on her face, "What do you mean by that?"
"Miss Shen has no lover, and she has to obey her parents' orders, so she will get married sooner or later. In this case, why not consider me?"
"Firstly, you and I are here because of the order of our elders. Secondly, my family is simple, and I have only four relatives, including myself. My eldest sister and second sister are busy with business all year round and are not at home most of the time. My third sister is just like me, and we are both in the dating stage. If Miss Shen chooses to marry me, she can be the head of the family after marriage."
"Secondly, I don't have any other blood relatives or elders in my family, so I don't need to visit them every morning and evening. No one will set rules for you. You can do whatever you want, and no one will restrict your freedom."
"Third, my second sister has long ago set the family rules that the sons of the Lin family are not allowed to take concubines, so as my wife, you don't have to worry about the problem of wives and concubines fighting, because it will never happen."
Hearing this, Shen Yi's eyes moved slightly, and her heart was quite moved. Which girl has not imagined that she will spend her life with her beloved and grow old together?
However, fantasy is only fantasy after all, and she is always sober and rational. She knows very well that this society has given too much power to men, and it is undoubtedly a fantasy to realize such expectations.
Let alone other things, her father, before marrying her mother, already had two maids. After marriage, he promoted the two maids to concubines. Over the years, the two concubines also gave birth to two illegitimate sons and daughters for her father.
Did her father treat her mother badly? In the eyes of outsiders, he might be considered very good, but Shen Yi only felt endless irony. Her father showed deep affection to her mother, but was very intimate with other people. What kind of goodness was this?
Her mother had passed away three years ago, and her father had not remarried. Outsiders all praised him as a loving and kind man. However, Shen Yi was dismissive and even despised. However, she could not make her true thoughts public.
After all, all the male elders around her had concubines, and no one would sympathize with her. All that awaited her were endless accusations and reprimands.
It is precisely because of these real cases around her that she has lost her expectations for marriage and no longer has any illusions.
Shen Yi never thought about a life where several women share one husband, but she has always been a good girl who never deviates from the norm in the eyes of her elders. In order to maintain a good image, she came to this interview, but she did not expect that the development of things would be so far beyond her expectations. In the process of the interview, she actually received Lin Cheng's direct confession and various assurances.
Shen Yi had to admit that, at least at this moment, she was moved. Everything Lin Cheng said was so in line with her wishes.
As for Lin Cheng's feelings for her, Shen Yi thought that this was the most unbelievable thing she had heard Lin Cheng say. A man's sweet words were poison. As long as she guarded her heart and was not moved, she would not be hurt.
Lin Cheng didn't finish his words. He continued, "Fourth, if you find that I have done anything wrong to you after we get married, you can file for divorce. At that time, all the properties under my name will belong to you, and I will leave the house with nothing."
After hearing these words, Shen Yi's eyes widened in shock. She asked in disbelief, "Is this also the rule of your family?"
